How to Make COFFEE LIQUEUR - 4K UHD
This COFFEE LIQUEUR recipe is perfectly delicious and can also made as a low carb keto version that can be used to create all of your favorite hi-energy caffeine infused cocktails! Try it in an ESPRESSO MARTINI ( or a TEQUILA ALEJANDRO ( It’s so tasty too!
INGREDIENTS
• 2 thinly sliced orange peels
• 1 vanilla bean, or 15 ml (0.5 oz) vanilla extract
• 1 cinnamon stick
• 120 ml (4 oz) hot espresso (or strong coffee)
• 175 g (2 cups) whole bean coffee (roughly ground)
• 75 g (½ cup) cocoa nibs
• 750 ml (3 cups) rum or vodka (100 proof or higher preferred)
• 240 ml (1 cup) simple syrup ( or keto simple syrup (
*For a sweeter liqueur, increase the simple syrup to 360 ml (1.5 cups)
DIRECTIONS
1. Add orange peels, vanilla, and cinnamon stick to a resealable glass jar.
2. Pour hot espresso into the jar to release the oil from the orange and infuse the flavors. Mix and set aside.
3. Roughly grind the coffee beans in a molcajete or a food processor (use only a few pulses). A coffee grinder can also be used, but make sure the grind is rough...you are not making coffee.
4. Add the roughly ground coffee beans, cocoa nibs, and rum (or vodka) to the jar with the orange, cinnamon, and vanilla mixture. Stir and seal jar.
5. Store jar in a cool, dark location such as a cupboard for five to fourteen days. Shake daily. Although the mixture will be ready after five days, let it steep for the full fourteen days if you want a more intense coffee flavor.
6. After steeping the desired amount of days, strain the liquid into a pitcher. Use a coffee filter when straining to reduce sediment.
7. Add the simple syrup and stir to blend.
8. Pour the liqueur into a swing top glass bottle or any resealable container.

Directions
1. Chop the dried apricots and crush all the dry ingredients just a little. They only need to be crushed enough to release the flavor.
2. Combine the apricots and dry ingredients in a 1 quart jar, add 1 cup of vodka, 1 cup of brandy, then seal up and store for 21 days, shaking the jar at least twice per day.
3. Strain out the solids, then filter the liquid through coffee filters 1 to 3 times to clarify it.
4. While the extract is filtering, add ½ cup of water to ½ cup of coconut sugar and heat it in the microwave for 2-3 minutes until the sugar is dissolved.
5. Then lightly caramelize the white sugar over medium heat in a non-stick sauce pot, stirring occasionally. It will melt, then turn brown quickly. Lower the heat to brown it slowly and avoid burning the sugar.
6. Carefully add the coconut sugar simple syrup to the caramel and stir it until all lumps are completely dissolved. You may need to reheat it slightly to help it dissolve. Allow it to cool, then add the remaining 1/2 cup of vodka to this syrup.
7. After the amaretto extract liquid has passed through the coffee filter, add the vanilla, then add the caramel syrup mixture to taste. Once you are happy with the level of sweetness, bottle the amaretto. It will be best to let it rest for a week before using to allow the flavors to marry.
